Everyone's fine @Shirley Martin ..we have another huge storm going through AGAIN today the third in 2.1/2 weeks ,no wonder the ground is so wet ..
I was at a family reunion today and heard somebody say that there was a terrible storm predicted to hit somewhere in the next few days. They said it might be the worst one ever. It wasn't Matthew. They are saying that we might get it the last of this week. They thought it was a typhoon which would mean it's in your part of the world, I think. Have you heard anything about that?
Yes Shirley that's what happened last week ,we had typhoon like winds ,which bent and buckled huge power line pylons like they were plastic toys ..We didn't have any power,phone and Internet for 24 hours http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-09-29/electricity-pylons-melrose-toppled-storm/7889658
Yes I couldn't "play games" ..Did you see the link showing the damaged pylons ..I posted just now ...
OMG! Imagine the force of the wind it took to bend those things! I'm surprised that anything (Like buildings) is left standing.
It was the scariest storm I've ever encountered ..We were OK cooked on gas stove in caravan . it's amazing no one drowned in floods ..which are still happening ..people were warned DONT DRIVE THROUGH STORM WATER. however people still do ..them beg to be rescued ..We have the army helping with sandbags as well as emergency workers from interstate ..No problem with flooding ,good drainage here ,and the water only has to travel 500 mtrs from us to run out to sea which has cliffs about 30 mtrs high so the water would need to come up heaps to effect us
We will be gone for a few days as I have an appointment with my orthopedic specialist in Sault Ste. Marie.. We will take advantage of the occasion to make it a mini holiday at the same time.. My right shoulder is bothering me to no end and I feel I will probably need a shoulder replacement very soon.. I will let you know what is happening upon my return in a few days......
Shirley... so do I but I am ready for the worst.. perhaps a cortisone shot might do it and I will be asking about it.. That's it for posting on here as we are off to Sault Ste. Marie very shortly.. Will be back in a few days... NOW PLEASE DON'T MISS ME TOO MUCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Talking about missing someone ..Where's Louise ?? if she posted she was going away ,I've missed her post With Steve away ,and Louise missing I've been here on and off and haven't had anyone to play games with
